Business
Zeal Aqua Limited (ZEAL.BO), an India-based aquaculture company founded in 2009 and headquartered in Surat, Gujarat, engages in the farming, production, harvesting, and processing of prawns, primarily Black Tiger shrimp (Penaeus monodon) and Vannamei shrimp; it trades shrimp seeds, feeds, medicines, and probiotics; and exports non-antibiotic seafood products to over 20 countries through a vertically integrated farm-to-fork supply chain incorporating owned farms spanning 300 hectares, satellite farming with a 500-farmer network across Gujarat, and a processing unit with 3,000+ MT annual capacity. The company holds the Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) certification as the only Indian shrimp exporter for Black Tiger shrimp, emphasizing sustainable practices, full traceability via digital systems, bio-security technologies, and technical services to farmers. In recent developments, Zeal Aqua entered a strategic partnership with Thailand-based LENK Frozen Foods Ltd. to expand Black Tiger shrimp exports to Europe, particularly Southern markets, targeting 50% of its 2,000+ MT 2023 output through this alliance; it received credit ratings in August 2025, appointed new statutory and secretarial auditors in September 2025 amid resignations, and revised whole-time director remuneration terms as part of ongoing governance enhancements.
